Welcome

Food Partners Alliance is a voluntary, multi-sector organization that was established as a result of a growing realization about the urgency to marshal more attention and resources into the building of a truly sustainable food system, as way to grow a prosperous, healthy tomorrow.

Our strengths are our people, diversity, heritage, ingenuity, timing and place.

Food Matters - Growing our Strengths

Do you care about the future of our food? About farmland and farmers? The impact of poor food choices on our health? Food related issues like hunger?  If so, we want to hear from you!

The County of Simcoe is working closely with a growing list of community partners in creating a Simcoe County Food and Agriculture Charter and is hosting a Visioning Day on February 21, 2012 to find out what matters most to you when it comes to food and the local food system.  The Visioning Day will be held at Lakehead University in Orillia from 8:30a.m to 4:00 p.m.  The registration fee is $25.00 which includes locally sourced lunch and refreshments.  Please note space is limited. 

Please see the links below for the agenda and registration form for the Visioning Day:
